Ahmed Indian Restaurant ALB

Ahmed’s is a real gem in Albany for hearty, flavorful Indian and Mughlai-style dishes. The mutton biryani is rich and full of spice, and the chai is strong and perfectly spiced. The buffet is a great option if you want to try a little of everything. Aloo naan is soft, buttery, and comes with your choice of rice or naan — hard to go wrong. The chicken roast and kababs are crowd favorites, great for sharing or solo plates. Service is kind and efficient, with staff who take time to explain dishes if you’re unsure. The space is welcoming and works for groups or casual dinners. Bonus points for their helpful tips on assembling street food like a pro. Great value and packed with flavor. Definitely worth a stop if you're in town.
